Default Looks like West Marine isn't doing very well.

Nuts with the"obamanomics" guys.

I posted that about West Marine because I dont' feel they should go
out of business, but figure out a way to survive in a down economy. It
seems that Overtons, and Cabella, are doing just fine, and they share
a lot of the product line.

Losing business, and the jobs it supports is never a good thing and
shouldn't be ill wished upon by anyone.



Isn't that the object of business... or at least one of them... not go out
of business, increase profit/market share? Maybe they have some underlying
problems that are causing them problems... don't know much about them
specifically, but their customer service seemed pretty good when I was
looking for a gift. Maybe that was just salesmanship.
